Connect Anthropic Claude to Reduz

Set up your Anthropic API key for direct-provider summaries with local history.

To summarize with Claude, add your own Anthropic API key to Reduz.

  1. Create a provider key. Open platform.claude.com/settings/keys and create a key in your Anthropic account. Check its API access, spend, and usage limits.
  2. Add the key in Reduz. Install Reduz, open Settings, select Anthropic Claude, and paste the key into that provider’s row.
  3. Test the connection. Click Test. If authentication or a spend limit fails, check the Anthropic console before summarizing.
  4. Summarize a source. Open a readable article, PDF, or captioned video and choose Bullets, Post, or Full. Results are saved locally.

Configured model

Section titled “Configured model”

Reduz uses Claude Haiku 4.5 for all tasks with this provider. It turns thinking off where the provider allows it.

API costs and availability

Section titled “API costs and availability”

Reduz is free to install and requires your own provider key. Anthropic bills API usage separately under its current prices and limits. A Claude subscription does not necessarily include API access.

Local keys and history

Section titled “Local keys and history”

Your key and saved history stay in this browser. Source text goes directly from your browser to Anthropic. Reduz receives neither.
